Learning Journey Post 3

Hi fellow bloggers
Day 3 Activity 1
In this blog post I had to say how I would feel about joining a large family. Here it is.

I would not like to be part of a large family of nine because I am a quiet girl. We would need to have the same amount of food each and I like to eat a lot. That's why I don't want to be in a large family. One sister is OK for me.

Day 3 Activity 2

In this activity I had to write my pepeha.  It was really hard but I did some of it, so here it is. I missed a few things out because my family is not Maori.

Ko ? te maunga
Ko ? te awa

Ko ? te waka

Ko ? tōku tīpuna

Ko ? tōku iwi

Ko ? tōku hapu

Ko ? tōku marae

Ko ? ahau

Ko Nicola rāua ko Bart ōku mātua

Ko Sara tōku ingoa.

Bonus Activity

In this bonus activity I had to ask three family members what their two favourite things to do in

the summer are.

1. Swimming and Play

2. Going to the Beach and Fishing

3. Swimming and Camping

Hi Fellow Bloggers

Day 2 Activity 1
In this Learning Journey task I had to compare a wharepuni to my house. Here are my two similarities and differences.

Similarities: They are both made of wood. They both have the same shaped roof on the top.

Differences: My house doesn't have carvings and the wharepuni does. Wharepuni is made out of ferns, rushes and bark and the walls are made out of timber but our house isn't.

Day 2 Activity 2
In this task I had to draw my dream job so here it is. It's me singing.

Bonus Activity

For this activity I had to take a picture of my favourite food and tell why I like it so much. Here it is.

I like pancakes because you can put lots of yummy stuff on them like.... banana, syrup and cinnamon.  

Learning Jorney Post 1

Hi fellow bloggers
Day 1 Activity 1
I am doing the Summer Learning Journey this holidays. My first blog post is about the first settlers. I had to write 3 facts I learnt from the story I read about Maui and the Giant Fish, so here are my 3 facts.

1. He ignores his mean brothers.

2. He catches large fish.

3. He has cunning plans.

Day 1 Activity 2
For this task I had to write a letter to my friend about how I feel about moving to a new country. Here is my letter to my friend.

Dear Louisa
I am moving to a new country on a waka. I am nervous because I will miss my family. When we sleep the water could get rough and the waka could tip over and I will get all wet.
From Sara

Bonus Activity
In this activity I had to watch a video of a Waka Ama race and explain why or why not I want to be in a Waka Ama race. Here is what I think of a Waka Ama Race.

I would love to be in a Waka Ama race it would be so fun because I will get to meet new friends and do team work with them.

My Learning Graph

Here is my progress graph for this year. It shows my results for reading, writing, maths and spelling and how I improved over the year. I think I am doing great at writing.

I  need to work harder at spelling.

End of Term 4 Recount Test.

Hi Fellow Bloggers

This is a screenshot of my results in our end of Term 4 recount writing test.

My teachers have worked out my average score for writing and I am at 3A.

This is above the National Standard for my year level.

I am doing great at structure.

My Margret Peters Spelling Progress.

Hi Fellow Bloggers
Here is my progress over the year in the Margret Peters spelling test. At the beginning of this year I scored 38 in the M.Peters spelling test. This gave me a spelling age of 11 years. In term 4 of this year I got a score of 39 in the M.Peters spelling test. This gave me a spelling age of 11.6 years. I improved by 1 point so I'm doing well, but I think I could work a little harder.
